Bri Ashlee Little

I can provide a wide style of performances depending on the type of event. I can do instrumental background piano music for your wedding ceremony; provide some classic 'piano bar' style entertainment for your cocktail party; or be the main event for whatever your event needs!

For dress code: I can provide formal, semi-formal, business casual, or costume gimmicks depending on what is appropriate for your event

I can provide a small sound system and all gear necessary for a solo piano set. With enough notice and a reasonable fee, I can provide a backing band as needed.

I can prepare anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours of cover material ranging in light jazz, delicately arranged rock tunes, contemporary and classic hits. I am able to take some requests, but please try to provide that information upon booking.

I have a song list of around 100+ hits, but my personal favorite songs to perform are:
-As - Stevie Wonder
-My Funny Valentine - Richard Rodgers, famously covered by Chet Baker and Frank Sinatra
-Just the Two Of Us - Bill Withers & Grover Washington Jr
-What's Up - 4 Non-Blondes
-Don't Stop Me Now - Queen
-Criminal - Fiona Apple
-Help Me - Joni Mitchell
-So Real - Jeff Buckley
-Creep - Radiohead

My name is Bri Ashlee Little and I am a full time professional musician from the Tacoma Area. I began playing piano at age 5 and I have played locally and around the country for the last 10 years. Here is a brief background on my career;

I started my professional career in 2013 performing small venues around the Seattle area, and have diligently worked hard to rapport as a reliable pianist and singer; most notable achievements include:
-I have a residency at Tacoma's Keys on Main location, a dueling piano bar.
-Playing local festivals Bite of Seattle, Taste of Tacoma, and Capitol Hill Block Party
-Playing Showare Center in 2017 opening up for Bret Micheals and Warrant. My group, The Morning After, brought 200 out of the 1000 attendees.
-I've recorded 3 studio albums, found here; (link hidden)
-I was featured in an episode of "Band in Seattle" in 2019; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCHPZR2inF0
-I've played in almost every state in the west half of the country
-I've played dozens of shows in 2021 and 2022 as a session pianist and backup singer, with regular appearances in local bands Apology Wars, Cashing In Karma and Prismia.
-I currently play keys in an 80's coverband, the Aquanets; (link hidden)
-For the last 2 years I've taught piano and voice lessons for all ages
-I have an associate's degree in music from Green River College, including a 4.0 GPA in music theory and vocal coaching courses; I was awarded as "best musician" in my 2015 choir class and apprenticed with my vocal professor in jazz clubs prior to graduating.

My piano style is influenced by R&B and pop, with some Jazz elements. My biggest inspirations musically are Stevie Wonder and Fiona Apple. My biggest passion in life is performing, and I have consistently delivered interesting and memorable performances across my career.

It's preferred if the event space already has a PA provided, but I can provide a small one of my own if needed. I only need 2-4 power outlets and about 30 sq ft of space.

I do not have any lighting at this time, that would either need to be provided by the event coordinator, or a higher deposit/fee would be required so I can obtain some of my own. Lighting requirements are minimal; depending on the event type/set up, I may only need some modest stage light, or none at all.
